Battle was our 1970s version of Dooley. Wasn't ever truly qualified to lead a big time program and got a job based on riding coattails of an SEC legend. Bill Battle fricked Tennessee football in the 1970s (a UA alum like Battle being given the UT job is strange in the first place, imagine Majors or Fulmer coaching Alabama, just ain't right). Hopefully 40 years later for y'all's sake he doesn't nuke Alabama basketball.

God it's weird your current AD was once the head football coach at Tennessee.


Ironically enough, your current AD graduated from Bama and played basketball here under C.M. Newton.

It still freaks me out that our current AD has a degree from the University of Alabama. Dave Hart will probably never truly earn my trust. It's just bizzare how that happens. When we had Dooley it felt like a sick joke was being conspired against our school by our chancellor(former UF guy), our AD( roll tide dave), and Doofy Dooley ( a pure bred UGA legacy) to sink and destroy our football program. The 3 guys employed by the state of Tennessee that had administrative power over football were all products of our 3 biggest rivals.
